NCT06150820
Pompe disease is a genetic condition which causes muscle weakness over time. People with Pompe disease have a faulty gene that makes an enzyme called acid alpha-glucosidase (or GAA). This enzyme breaks down a type of sugar called glycogen. Without this enzyme, there is a build-up of glycogen in the cells of the body. This causes muscle weakness and other symptoms. Pompe disease can happen at any age, but in late-onset Pompe disease, symptoms generally start from 12 months old onwards. The standard treatment for people with Pompe disease is to receive regular infusions of the GAA enzyme. This is known as enzyme replacement therapy. However, people can build up antibodies against the GAA enzyme over time. Gene therapy is used to treat conditions caused by a faulty gene. It works by replacing the faulty gene with a working gene inside the cells of the body. The working gene is delivered into the cells using certain viruses as carriers (vectors). Viruses are often used as carriers as they can easily get inside cells. The genetic material of the original virus is replaced with the working gene, so only the working gene gets inside the cells. A common virus used as a carrier in gene therapy is the adeno-associated virus (or AAV). This is like an adenovirus, which causes the common cold. The original type of AAV does not cause any harm to humans. However, people that have previously been infected with the original type of AAV may have built up antibodies against AAV. These antibodies may stop the AAV carrier with the working gene getting inside the cells. Researchers want to learn more about antibody levels against AAV and the GAA enzyme in people with late-onset Pompe disease. They also want to learn about other substances in the blood that provide more information about late-onset Pompe disease. These are known as biomarkers. In this study, older teenagers and adults with late-onset Pompe disease will take part. They will not have had gene therapy using AAV. There will be 2 groups - those who have never had enzyme replacement therapy, and those who have had enzyme replacement therapy for 6 months or more. No study treatment will be given during the study, but blood and urine samples will be taken for testing. The main aims of the study are to check antibody levels against AAV8 (a type of AAV) in people with late-onset Pompe disease who had not received any treatment using AAV, to check antibody levels against the GAA enzyme in people previously treated with GAA as part of enzyme replacement therapy, to check levels of biomarkers for Pompe disease, and to check for medical problems. In the study, people will visit the study clinic several times. Some visits may be in the person's home. The first visit is to check if they can take part. Those who can take part will have a medical examination, and have their vital signs checked. Vital signs include blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate and temperature. Blood samples will be taken to check antibody levels against the GAA enzyme and against AAV8. Blood and urine samples will also be taken to check for biomarkers for Pompe disease. Blood and urine samples will be taken about every 4 months for up to 2 years.

NCT02156102
Background: \- People with sickle cell disease and other blood disorders sometimes get chronic leg ulcers. These are wounds that develop on the skin and don t go away. Current treatments do not work very well, so researchers want to learn more about why the ulcers happen. They want to find out which bacteria may cause it, and if external factors play a role. Objective: \- To study social and environmental factors of sickle cell disease and the causes of sickle cell disease leg ulcers. Eligibility: \- People age 18 and older who have sickle cell disease or another red cell disorder, with or without an active leg ulcer. Design: * Participants will have a medical history and clinical evaluation. They will also have blood drawn. * Participants will complete questionnaires about their life, health, environment, stress, and other topics. * Participants may provide a small sample of hair. * Participants will be asked to collect a small amount of saliva. * Participants with leg ulcers will have their skin microbiome sampled. The microbiome is all of the microbes (bacteria and and/or fungi) and their genes in and on the body. Researchers will use swabs to collect skin samples. Photographs will be taken of the skin sample area. * Some participants without leg ulcers also will have their skin microbiome sampled. * Some participants who have their skin microbiome sampled will return for a second visit. At this visit, their microbiome will be resampled. It will take place more than 30 days after the first visit.

The goal of this Phase 3, randomized study is to assess the safety, efficacy, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of oral JNT-517 in adults (18 years of age or older) with PKU. Participants will receive either JNT-517 or placebo and will be blinded to their treatment assignment. Participants will have a 2 in 3 (or approximately 67%) chance of receiving JNT-517 during the first part of the study which will last approximately six weeks. During the second part of the study every participant who continues in the study will receive one of two doses of JNT-517 for an additional 46 weeks. The study requires a screening period of up to 35 days to ensure dietary stabilization and amino acid levels required to meet study eligibility. In total, participation in the study could last for up to 400 days. Participants will: Take 75 mg JNT-517 or 150 mg JNT-517, or a placebo BID (2x per day) for approximately 365 days; Visit the clinic or have a mobile health nurse visit your home for checkups and tests; Collect urine sample at home and bring to clinic on specified days; Keep a food diary 3 days before each study visit
NCT04128189
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how well the shingles vaccine (Shingrix) works and how safe it is in adults with kidney failure who are waiting for a kidney transplant, including those who later receive a transplant. The study also aims to find out whether giving an extra (third) dose of the vaccine after transplant improves protection. The main questions it aims to answer are: How strong is the body's immune response to the vaccine at different time points (about 1 month, 2 years, and 3 years after vaccination) in people waiting for a kidney transplant? Does a third dose of the vaccine after transplant improve the immune response compared to not receiving a third dose? How long does protection from the vaccine last before and after transplant? How safe is the vaccine in this group, including whether it affects transplant-related immune markers? Researchers will compare people who receive a third dose of the vaccine after transplant to those who do not receive a third dose, as well as to results from similar groups studied in the past, to see if the extra dose improves immune protection. Participants will: Be screened to see if they can take part in the study Attend about 3 to 6 study visits over approximately 30 to 37 months Receive two doses of the shingles vaccine if they have not already been vaccinated, or complete study assessments if they were vaccinated before joining If they receive a kidney transplant during the study, be randomly assigned (by chance) to receive either a third dose of the vaccine or no additional dose Complete questionnaires, have physical exams if needed, and provide blood (and urine, if applicable) samples at study visits Take part in follow-up visits to check immune response and safety, with the option to allow samples to be stored for future research Shingrix is approved for adults aged 50 and older and for younger adults with weakened immune systems. However, giving a third dose after a kidney transplant is not standard practice and is being studied in this trial.
NCT05362721
Coarctation of the aorta accounts for 4-7% of all congenital heart disease. While stent therapy, when feasible, is the standard of care for coarctation, it may not completely improve the work (and afterload) of the heart due to its effects on the elasticity of the aorta. This study will provide the information needed to understand the effects of current management on the cardiac mechanics and work.
NCT07250737

NCT07516964
Nephrotic syndrome is a kidney condition that mainly affects children and is characterized by high levels of protein in the urine, low levels of protein in the blood, and swelling. While many children respond well to steroid treatment, a large proportion experience relapses or become dependent on therapy. In some cases, the disease does not respond to standard treatments and may progress to chronic kidney disease. Recent research suggests that, in addition to genetic factors, immune system mechanisms may play a key role in the development and progression of nephrotic syndrome. In particular, some patients produce autoantibodies against nephrin, an essential protein of the kidney filtration barrier. These autoantibodies may be associated with disease activity and treatment response. The aim of this study is to investigate the presence of anti-nephrin autoantibodies in children with nephrotic syndrome and to better understand their role in disease mechanisms and clinical outcomes.The study will also explore the presence of other autoantibodies targeting components of the glomerular filtration barrier. The study will use advanced laboratory techniques, including blood tests and detailed analysis of kidney biopsy samples, to identify these antibodies and their relationship with kidney structure and function. By integrating laboratory findings with clinical data, this study aims to improve the understanding of nephrotic syndrome and support the development of more personalized diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, with the goal of improving patient outcomes and reducing unnecessary or ineffective treatments.
